Overwatch 2 been out a full day now and a good majority of players have some sort of issue going on. Imagine releasing the same game you’ve had out for 6 years and botch the release

@NeroKatatonik I didn't get into it, but a friend did. It's fine, between working myself and trying to login into Overwatch 2 I don't think I would've had the motivation to play it.

reading reviews, it sounds like there's a fun game in overwatch 2, which has been utterly buried in tedious live service junk and a hostile player-publisher relationship so yknow, blizzard to a tee.

Yeah, Overwatch 2 is so much fun… once you get in. Feel bad for the devs. Multiple DDoS attacks must be so devastating

Me: *trying to play overwatch after 4pm GMT* IS IT REALLY DDOS or is it that overwatch didn't expect this kind of hype for a FTP? Cause in all my experience over years of beta's alphas and ftps you should always ALWAYS be prepared for 5x more than you expect to play

What's worse is that even if you wanted to play the original overwatch while you wait, you can't because they stopped supporting the live service to it One of the many ****** things about modern games, they can pull the plug whenever

@theMoneyFolder I think they’ve been working on this game since after the lawsuits. They prolly worked on it here and there before but i dont think they started til recently. There was a pandemic, management issues, and the lawsuits. I was mainly excited for overwatch 2 because it means the game

If the option to invite your friends to a group in Overwatch 2 is greyed out and you get a message claiming they’re playing a different version of the game, open up the game’s chat and type “/invite” with their Battle net ID it should bypass the error message. #Overwatch2 #ERROR

@balagaln @whiten0iz @lackingsaint But that's a one time purchase, AT&T or whatever phone plan you have is a monthly service plus you have to buy a phone and that adds to the cost to play OverWatch 2 so you're basically paying a monthly subscription to play the damn game and it's ridiculous.

Blizzard really fumbled the overwatch 2 release. It’s kind of embarrassing the amount of issues they had at launch and the support and main account has gone dark @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS

Anyone have a fix for the message “rendering device has been lost” when playing Overwatch 2? It’s so frustrating when it happens, and it makes me have to wait in the queue again. This happened in 1 as well, but not as frequently.

@Kephrii Perfectly fine for me, and have had no issues with it, most likely due to server lag and tickrate suffering, players were flashing across my screen earlier, a classic symptom of low tickrate servers, overwatch 2 should have been 100 tickrate servers not this 62.5 ****

i'll say it. i think overwatch 2 is getting too much hate. i mean sure the monetary scheme is appalling and terrible and the server issues are as bad as people are saying they are and the gameplay isn't actually that much different even if it does *feel* a bit different and the c
